Pass the Salesforce AI Specialist Agentforce-Specialist Questions and answers with CertsForce

To improve the productivity of the service center, the Agentforce Specialist should recommend the Service Replies and Case Summaries features.

Service Replies helps agents by automatically generating suggested responses to customer inquiries, reducing response time and improving efficiency.

Case Summaries provide a quick overview of case details, allowing agents to get up to speed faster on customer issues.

Work Summaries are not as relevant for direct customer service operations, and Sales Summaries are focused on sales processes, not service center productivity.

For more information, see Salesforce's Einstein Service Cloud documentation on the use of generative AI to assist customer service teams.

According to the AgentForce Testing Center Guide, structured batch testing is the feature that provides consistent, repeatable pass/fail validation for agent testing. The documentation explains: “Structured batch testing allows specialists to define expected outputs per test utterance and automatically validate the agent’s responses, resulting in deterministic pass/fail outcomes.”

This approach ensures testing consistency across multiple runs and environments, unlike user ratings (Option A) which are subjective, or event log scripts (Option B) which are manual and not standardized.

Thus, Option C is correct because structured batch testing provides Salesforce’s official framework for validating agent accuracy with consistent logic.

According to the AgentForce for Service Configuration Guide, for an agent to interact with and retrieve Knowledge articles, it must have Knowledge object and field access, along with the “Allow View Knowledge” permission. The documentation explains: “Agents need permission to access Knowledge records and their fields to retrieve and summarize content accurately. Additionally, the Allow View Knowledge setting enables the agent to use the Knowledge object as a retrieval source.”

Option A is incomplete because “Run Flows” is unrelated to Knowledge article access. Option C refers to custom object permissions and external user management, which are unrelated to Knowledge configuration. Therefore, Option B provides the correct and required set of permissions for AgentForce Service Agents to access and utilize Knowledge data effectively.

When a flow is invoked via a custom Agent action, its data access depends on the flow’s runtime configuration, not system mode by default. Salesforce flows can be configured to respect the running user’s permissions and sharing settings:

If the flow is set to "Run as the User Who Launched the Flow" (enabled in Flow Settings), it adheres to the user’s permissions, field-level security (FLS), and sharing rules.

Option C is incorrect because flows do not always run in system mode unless explicitly configured to do so.

Option A is misleading because "with sharing" is an Apex concept, not a flow setting. Flows use runtime settings like FLS and sharing enforcement.

Universal Containers (UC) has a standard email prompt template (likely a prebuilt template provided by Salesforce) that isn’t meeting their needs, and they want to customize it while retaining its original content as a starting point. Let’s assess the options based on Agentforce prompt template management practices.

Option A: Save as New Template and edit as needed.In Agentforce Studio’s Prompt Builder, there’s no explicit "Save as New Template" option for standard templates. This phrasing suggests creating a new template from scratch, but the question specifies using the content of the existing standard template. Without a direct "save as" feature for standards, this option is imprecise and less applicable than cloning.

Option B: Clone the existing template and modify as needed.Salesforce documentation confirms that standard prompt templates (e.g., for email drafting or summarization) can be cloned in Prompt Builder. Cloning creates a custom copy of the standard template, preserving its original content and structure while allowing modifications. The Agentforce Specialist can then edit the cloned template—adjusting instructions, grounding, or output format—to meet UC’s specific business requirements. This is the recommended approach for customizing standard templates without altering the original, making it the correct answer.

Option C: Save as New Version and edit as needed.Prompt Builder supports versioning for custom templates, allowing users to save new versions of an existing template to track changes. However, standard templates are typically read-only and cannot be versioned directly—versioning applies to custom templates after cloning. The question implies starting with the standard template’s content, so cloning precedes versioning. This option is a secondary step, not the initial action, making it incorrect.

Why Option B is Correct:

Cloning is the documented method to repurpose a standard prompt template’s content while enabling customization. After cloning, the specialist can modify the new custom template (e.g., tweak the email prompt’s tone, structure, or grounding) to align with UC’s requirements. This preserves the original standard template and follows Salesforce best practices.

Universal Containers (UC) has deployed an Agentforce Service Agent on its website, but it’s failing to provide answers from Salesforce Knowledge articles. Let’s troubleshoot the issue.

Option A: The Agentforce Service Agent user is not assigned the correct Agent Type License.There’s no "Agent Type License" in Salesforce—agent functionality is tied to Agentforce licenses (e.g., Service Agent license) and permissions. Licensing affects feature access broadly, but the specific issue of not retrieving Knowledge suggests a permission problem, not a license type, making this incorrect.

Option B: The Agentforce Service Agent user needs to be created under the standard Agent Knowledge profile.No "standard Agent Knowledge profile" exists. The Agentforce Service Agent runs under a system user (e.g., "Agentforce Agent User") with a custom profile or permission sets. Profile creation isn’t the issue—access permissions are, making this incorrect.

Option C: The Agentforce Service Agent user was not given the Allow View Knowledge permission set.The Agentforce Service Agent user requires read access to Knowledge articles to ground responses. The "Allow View Knowledge" permission (typically via the "Salesforce Knowledge User" license or a permission set like "Agentforce Service Permissions") enables this. If missing, the agent can’t access Knowledge, even if articles are indexed, causing the reported failure. This is a common setup oversight and the likely issue, making it the correct answer.

Why Option C is Correct:

Lack of Knowledge access permissions for the Agentforce Service Agent user directly prevents retrieval of article content, aligning with the symptoms and Salesforce security requirements.
